Based on information provided by the trio who own a mine, Hinata three companions found their way to the vicinity of the mine.
Hiding behind a rock, Hinata stared at the mine in front of her and muttered to herself, "This is Gold Mine Mountain. I wonder if I can pick up some gold to take back..."
Neji helplessly reminded her, "Lady Hinata! This is a mine in the Land of Rivers. Robbing another country's property rashly will affect the village's reputation in the Shinobi World."
Hinata glanced coldly at Neji.
Neji is getting more and more serious now; you can't joke around with him at all. He's not as fun as he was when he was a kid.
Rock Lee took out a small notebook and said with great concern, "What Teacher Might Guy said is also very noteworthy!"
Tenten muttered under her breath, "But... what Teacher Might Guy says isn't always reliable!"
Rock Lee glared at Tenten, exasperated, and said, "Tenten! How could you say that? Teacher Might Guy can't be wrong!"
"Byakugan!"
Hinata her Byakugan, waved for everyone to be quiet, and whispered, "We've discovered something!"
In a wooden hut near the mine, a group of people cloaked in black surrounded Rokosuke. One of them said in a sinister voice, "Lord Raiga, one of the three who escaped from the village, Rokosuke, has been captured!"
'Squeak...'
The door of the wooden house slowly opened, and Raiga, also dressed in a black robe, walked out of the house and said indifferently, "You've worked hard!"
"Those guys, I don't know which ninja village they went to and called for reinforcements... Hehehe!"
Rokosuke trembled with fear and bowed his head, apologizing, "I'm sorry... I'm so sorry!"
Raiga looked down at Rokosuke and said coldly, "Rokosuke, aren't we as close as family with the villagers of the Gold Mine Mountain?"
"Then why is that?"
Do you know how heartbroken I was when I heard that you guys had run away from the village?
"I've almost forgotten the days when we were as close as family!"
Rokosuke knelt on the ground and kept apologizing. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll never do it again!"
Raiga's voice suddenly rose in pitch. "Oh, right, I just remembered a great idea... Hey! I'll throw you a funeral!"
Hinata saw everything through her Byakugan.
Although I don't know what Rokosuke and Raiga said, this kind of guy who's more trouble than he's worth... if it weren't for the mission, I really wouldn't want to save him!
Is a level 0 alt account going to tower dive and feed kills?
Hinata is very familiar with this plot.
In some brainless dramas, there are always characters who overestimate their abilities and insist on going out to have fun by themselves.
Then he fell into the hands of the enemy and suffered endless torment, and in the end, he dragged a lot of people down with him.
The worst part is that they always act like they're making a lot of sense.
He can AFK and flame his teammates, or tower dive and feed kills. He can go on the offensive and give away first blood alone, or he can miss his ultimate and betray his teammates.
Hinata whispered, "I've spotted Rokosuke. Let's move!"
When Hinata and the others arrived, Rokosuke had already been put into a coffin, surrounded by a group of people dressed in black cloaks.
Hinata shouted, "Charge straight there and save them!"
Tenten takes out a few black balls from her ninja tool bag and waves them to throw them.
Hinata quickly stopped Tenten, frowning as she asked, "Tenten, what is this?"
Tenten asked in surprise, "A smoke bomb?"
Hinata looked up at the sky speechlessly, wondering if all the teammates she encountered were Teletubbies.
Smoke grenades have no lethality whatsoever; they're only used to cover teammates or during retreats.
Everyone's outside right now, and it's windy. If you throw out smoke bombs, aren't you just telling the enemy that there's an enemy attack?
Use this!
Hinata took out ten Kunai with Explosive Tag attached from her ninja tool bag and handed them to Tenten.
Tenten took the Kunai, swung both hands at the same time, and threw the Explosive Tag Kunai out.
It has to be said that Tenten is quite skilled at using ninja tools.
However, ninja tools have too many limitations and their destructive power is pitifully small. If one does not know other Ninjutsu, one can only reach the level of Chunin at most.
Fortunately, Tenten has other skills.
If you lack talent, make up for it with good looks.
Tenten is quite good-looking, with rosy cheeks that make her look very appetizing.
Hinata glanced at Neji.
What a pity! I wonder if Neji could have changed his fate. Otherwise, even if Neji had survived the Fourth Shinobi World War, he would have only been able to marry a woman from the Hyuga Clan.
'Whoosh whoosh whoosh...'
The Kunai fell to the ground, Explosive Tag began to burn.
Before the Kurotsuchi Clan members, clad in black cloaks, could react, they were blown to pieces by the loud explosions.
Hinata and the others rushed forward and knocked down some of the survivors.
Neji said in a deep voice, "There's one more!"
Rock Lee turned to look at a black-robed man hiding behind a rock, and charged over with a roar.
Uh... it turns out to be an old acquaintance of Rock Lee's, the grandson of Granny Sansho... Karashi.
Watching Rock Lee launch into a lecture, Hinata could only stare speechlessly at the heavens.
What kind of bizarre turn of events is this?
A Second Young Master joins the underworld to prove himself?
Moreover, Rock Lee's reasons for lecturing were simply bizarre.
However, it seems only those with delusions of grandeur can understand delusions of grandeur. After being lectured by Rock Lee on his bizarre reasons about 'cooking,' Karashi was completely convinced, repented his past mistakes, and vowed to turn over a new leaf and make even more delicious curry to give back to society...
So, is this the story of a misguided teenager who changes careers and becomes a chef again?
Hinata covered her face and said, "Never mind them, let's rescue Rokosuke first!"
Neji suddenly turned to look at the distant mountains, his expression grave, and said, "Hinata!"
Hinata asked in confusion, "Brother Neji, what's wrong?"
Neji stared for a long time, then suddenly his whole body trembled, and he exclaimed, "What is this? It feels like being pricked with needles..."
"We're being watched, probably by Raiga!"
Hinata stroked her chin and analyzed, "Raiga wasn't among that group. Based on the information we received earlier that 'Raiga likes to personally organize funerals,' he probably knew about our presence from the beginning!"
"And Rokosuke... is the pawn that Raiga used to lure us out!"
Rokosuke bowed his head and apologized, "I'm so sorry!"
Neji said in a deep voice, "It seems that's true... Raiga is on that rocky mountain ahead."
"Hinata, there seems to be something blocking my Byakugan. Your Dojutsu power is even greater than mine..."
"Byakugan!"
Hinata her Byakugan and followed Neji's gaze. In a black and white field of vision, two Chakra reactions appeared on the rocky mountain.
"Not alone..."
Hinata's expression turned serious, and she said in a deep voice, "Besides Raiga, there is another person who was carried on Raiga's back."
"The thing that's stopping Brother Neji's Byakugan is that guy... his Chakra is weird!"
Neji's expression turned serious upon hearing Hinata's words.
The Byakugan is the foundation of the Hyuga Clan's standing in the Shinobi World. If anything can obscure the Byakugan, it will be the Hyuga Clan's nemesis.
Not everyone in the Hyuga Clan has Hinata's powerful Dojutsu power.
Hinata shouted, "Let's go! Let's go take a look!"
